GLOUCESTER TOWNSHIP, N.J. -- Three New Jersey police officers were shot and wounded yesterday at
their station, and one was in surgery for his wounds, a hospital official said.

TV news reported that the suspected gunman was killed in the exchange of gunfire at the police
station in Gloucester Township, N.J., about 16 miles from Philadelphia. The TV report said the
suspect had been brought in for a domestic incident.

The three wounded police officers, two men and a woman, were brought to a hospital shortly after
6 a.m., hospital spokeswoman Lori Shaffer said. Two of the officers suffered minor wounds, but one
of the men required surgery, Shaffer said.
